72 – There are too many thieves in the world (9)

From noble mtl dot com

“Let’s use the hollow in the snowy field. Hide the spear in the hollow and raise the spear when the horses run over the hollow.”

“If a person just lifts it, the force of the horse will actually push it. The bamboo spear may slide to the side.”

“Then how about driving the end a little deeper into the ground? Then, wouldn’t the momentum of the cavalry be received by the ground rather than the person? It’s like setting a trap.”

The three women gathered their opinions as one.

“Then we must make sure that the soldier hiding under the pit does not get hurt. He does not get hit by the fragments of the spear that explodes after the horse is impaled.”

“Putting it into the ground is done with a bamboo spear. Even if bamboo breaks, it will not break easily.”

“If you make the length of the spear a little deeper into the ground, the killing power will increase. Otherwise, you could push the bamboo spear and fall into a pit.”

The subject is Sima Yi.

Then, Zhuge Liang and Xu added their opinions and refined the tactics.

“Master, you will retreat backwards and draw in the enemy’s heavy troops. Then, the enemy soldiers will naturally follow behind you.”

“If you just run away, won’t you realize it’s a decoy?”

“That’s what Master said.”

Zhuge Liang cleared his throat and straightened his posture.

“You plan on the assumption that the inducement will succeed.”

“I see. If Master says so, then we should follow it.”

Now that Geum Taeyang has made his promise, all that remains is to think about how to continue the situation.

“Soldiers, including Master, will run on a ‘live path’ that slides down a rice paddy ridge. There are no bamboo spears, and straw bales are placed on the road to prevent slipping.”

“It’s a steep slope, but there’s a world of difference between knowing it and going down it without knowing.”

“Even if they think there is something down there, the enemy will not be able to stop in time and will fall asleep.”

“The horses will fall into the ditch and be impaled by bamboo spears, and the rider will fall off the horse. Then, those hiding will stab them with spears and kill them for sure.”

“We will have to kill the cavalry every time they fall. It would be better to form a group of three or two to make sure we take out one person. The cavalry will definitely line up and run, so if you kill the cavalry in front, the cavalry in the back will scatter left and right. “

“It is difficult to deal with those who leave. After dealing with those who fall first, you have to run straight to the next location.”

Sima Yi’s eyes shined sharply.

“The first intercept is to neutralize the enemy’s cavalry force.”

The gist of the operation is to deceive the eye using the drop of the abyss.

if.

If the enemy’s eyes go blank and he rushes at you.

What if the soldiers chasing you suddenly fall down in front of you, and the momentum builds up to the point where you can’t stop it even if you grab the reins?

“Let’s make him fall down the ditch just as he was running.”

* * *

Flutter!!

Straw bales covered with snow flew in all directions.

Under a furrow deep enough for one person to crouch down and hide, soldiers covered with snow-covered straw appeared all at once where we ran.

“Everyone, raise the window–!!”

With Moon Bing’s shout, the hidden soldiers began extending their spears diagonally.

The soldiers who were running away without helping me also threw themselves down the furrow, and one by one, they began putting the things under the furrow into the holes they had dug in the ground.

The soldiers carried hard spears with which to stab the horses to death, and bamboo spears were inserted between the furrows to be thrown into the ground if the horse or rider stumbled and fell.

“A parentless bastard! Where-”

In the lead, Zhang Jie appeared on top of the rice field ridge. He tried to jump out right away, but seeing the spearmen lined up below made him think.

Hee hee!!

He hurriedly pulled on the hump.

The horse raised its front paws in surprise.

It is unusual to make a judgment right away as soon as you see the situation in front of you.

But it was already too late.

The horse he was barely holding on to the reins was unable to control himself and was slowly stepping forward on its hind legs. What would the other horsemen who were following behind him think?

If you can’t stop your words with force like Jang Che-

“It falls forward like a cart going downhill.”

“Ugh, ugh!!”

Next to Emperor Zhang, two cavalrymen began to fall over on the ridge. As the rice field ridge, which was close to a slope, was intentionally cut to create a drop, the horses lost their footing and fell down.

“Everyone, prepare for impact—!”

Moon Bing shouted from the front line.

The five hundred defenders of Jingju were an ambush, and there was a risk of being discovered by the enemies if they shouted.

But the enemy is cavalry.

The moment I shouted, the cavalry was already running and could no longer change direction due to its inertia.

-Even a Xiliang cavalry would die if a bamboo spear were stuck under the belly of a horse.

hehehe!!

The startled horses quickly try to stop, but it is no use.

“Ugh!!”

Sigh!

The horse was unable to change direction and was the first to be stabbed.

After the horse was stabbed with a bamboo spear, the rider lost control of the reins and flew straight into the field, and the soldiers who had been hiding in the ditch jumped out.

Phew!

Three people quickly stabbed one person to death with a spear at the same time.

The cavalry fell down, vomiting blood, and the soldiers quickly retrieved their spears and hid in the ditch again.

“It’s a trap!”

Emperor Zhang hurriedly shouted, but the leading cavalry had already begun to slip one by one on the drop of the rice field ridge and hit their heads in the field one by one.

The bamboo spear stuck in the ground pierced them, tearing the stem into several pieces, but the sharply cut tip of the bamboo spear pierced the neck and stomach of the horse and rider, causing red blood to begin to flow.

Phew, puff, puff.

Wen Bing’s soldiers frantically raised their spears and killed the riders who had fallen from their horses.

I thought it was a waste that the course horses raised by the Xiliang cavalry were impaled by bamboo spears and died, but I didn’t have the energy to fight while worrying about such things.

Kill them unconditionally.

I lifted the red flag I was holding in my arms.

“Bow, listen!”

fluttering.

As I raised the military flag high for everyone to see, those who had run away with me began to raise the bows that had been buried in the snow.

Unless you intentionally shoot downwards with your bow, there is no way you will hit the ally in the pit.

The goal is above the rice field ridge.

“Shoot!!”

Pabababat!!

The snow on the arrow fluttered like powder and flew across the rice field. It is literally a blind arrow, but an arrow fired at a distance of less than fifty steps is no longer a blind arrow.

Argh!

Screams began to be heard from beyond the rice field ridge.

“Oof.”

Nausea wells up inside me.

At my command, the soldiers fired arrows to kill people, and I could hear the sound of people dying on the rice field ridge.

It’s as if I killed him.

-Master.

However, there is no time to quibble here.

“more….”

I have to kill more.

For this next operation to be successful, more cavalrymen must be stabbed by spears and killed by arrows.

“more…!”

My nose throbs from the scent of horse and human blood.

Human blood contains not only the blood of enemies, but also the blood of allies, of course.

“You bastards!”

A cavalryman rode forward, stepping over his comrade’s corpse with his horse’s hoof. He stabbed the spear he was holding in his hand towards the hollow, and the blade became lodged in the neck of one of the soldiers.

“Oooooh!!”

Moon Bing grabbed the bamboo spear and threw it towards the cavalry.

The bamboo spear pierced the horseman’s neck exactly, and the horseman rolled his eyes and fell next to the horse.

Hee hee!!

It is also bad news for us when a startled horse starts running wild.

Before those hiding in the ditch could escape, the horses fell sideways, and the horses stumbled and kicked our soldiers with their hooves.

In battle, there is no one-sided victory.

There is no way for one side to win without shedding all blood and the other side without shedding even a single drop of blood.

“Ugh…!”

“General.”

The person who was attached to me as my adjutant came up next to me.

“We are soldiers.”

“…….”

“Order.”

soldier.

The weight of those words made me raise the military standard I was about to lower even higher.

“Shoot! Stop them from stepping on the corpse!”

Traps using drops may be effective at first, but once the corpses accumulate to a certain extent, their effectiveness is greatly reduced.

“They have dug a trap! Step on the dead brothers and run! Trample and kill those hiding in the pit!!!”

In response to Zhang Jie’s evil shout, an even louder roar rang out from behind.

From noble mtl dot com

“General!! It’s coming!!”

“Are you here?”

He trapped the cavalryman and killed him.

However, it is only a small number of cavalry, and behind them are thousands of infantry.

“General Moon Bing!!”

“Wow, I thought I was going to die! All troops! Retreat!!”

Moon Bing, who killed a cavalryman who had stepped over the corpse with a javelin from below, jumped onto the horse that had lost its rider and grabbed the reins.

Hee hee hee!

“Shut up, you bastard! If you don’t run quickly, I’ll chop you into beef jerky!!”

The horse was startled and lashed out, but it seemed to have sensed Moon Bing’s sudden force and quickly put its front paw down calmly.

“All troops, break away!!”

At Wen Bing’s shout, the soldiers in the pit all jumped out. Wen Bing received a spear from a retreating soldier and responded to the cavalry by swinging the spear from behind the soldiers.

“General!”

“Hurry back!”

Moon Bing raised the spear horizontally.

“I will buy time myself.”

“General!”

“hurry!!”

The horse I was riding was startled by Moon Bing’s yelling and started to turn its head. When I looked to the side, the adjutant next to me was pulling the string tied to the horse, urging him to walk.

“Don’t worry! I will definitely survive!”

“Keuuu…!!”

I ran.

Together with the soldiers, I ran and ran and ran to the promised location.

I wasn’t skilled enough to look back while riding a horse, so I could only judge by listening to the shouts.

If I had looked back, a scene like that would probably have been unfolding.

Wow!!

Behind Wen Bing, Chiang Kai-shek’s infantry began to jump down all at once.

* * *

We ran away.

Up to five hundred soldiers suffered no major losses… .

no.

Thirty people died.

And killed over four hundred cavalrymen.

But can this be said to have been ‘appropriately exchanged’?

Someone died.

“…….”

I don’t know.

But one thing is clear: the problem is how to deal with the enemy in front of you.

Thump, thump, thump.

“Hey, parentless guy.”

Emperor Chiang, who lost his cavalry, formed thousands of infantry into a square and began to advance very slowly.

“I will chase you to the end of the column and kill you.”

Troop difference is still absolute.

but.

“If you come any closer than that, you will all die here.”

This is Shinya.

From here on out, it’s my land.

“Sure, said.”

already.

A second intercept operation is underway.
